LEADER.
My King, thou needs must gird thee to the worst.
Thou shalt not be the last, nor yet the first,
To lose a noble wife. Be brave, and know
To die is but a debt that all men owe.

Additional quotes by Euripides

The care of God for us is a great thing,
if a man believe it at heart:
it plucks the burden of sorrow from him.
So I have a secret hope
of someone, a God, who is wise and plans;
but my hopes grow dim when I see
the deeds of men and their destinies.
For Fortune is ever veering, and the currents of life are shifting,
shifting, wandering for ever.

Para mí quiero, antes que un rico, un Pobre que tenga un alma grande.
